I was recently diagnosed with pnes at some episode of fainting i liked it cause it was like escaping for few sec and most of them i hated it feels like i was causing it myself
I have fainted several times now but have myself never seen someone faint until yesterday at work. I thought they were having a seizure, but I'm thankful I found this video because I had no idea that people can faint and have seizure-like movements.
same there was like a movie playing in my head once i passed out but when i woke up i couldn’t rember what happened in it i just remember the movie happening
Same, this is actually a symptom that it is a vasovagal syncope instead of a seizure since ppl with seizures don’t have dreams when they experience an episode, but around 16% of ppl w vasovagal syncope do.
same i was in my bathroom and i stretched and everything went black and my body went numb. i felt my body shaking and heard everything on my counter falling and nothing made sense like i was in a dream like state
I have these everytime and mine is surprisingly extremely painful everytime it’s like im in a constant dream and everything’s going very fast and it feels like I’m tingling but it hurts and it does feel like im dieing I had one today and shook severally and my vision was completely black I didn’t know where I was it was pretty bad
I think this is what happens to me. It’s happened twice now, once on December 9,2022 and once today July 17,2024. It’s very short but within that time my brain thinks “okay I’m sleeping, wait why am I sleeping, I’m supposed to be doing ___” and then my vision gradually comes back. Both times witnesses have said that I was kind of shaking on the floor, and the first time it happened they said that my eyes were kind of rolling back (the first time the people were closer to me, so it might’ve happened the second time) I went to the doctor the first time it happened and they couldn’t explain what it was, so thank you for this!
I have the same symptoms, mine have happened 3 times, first on 14 may 2023 then on 24 June 2024 and last time was on 24 July, my parents are kinda terrified because of the accident and we consult to the doctor twice, first when I had this attack for the first time and my report outcome was absolutely normal but when I had for the second and third time we again consulted to an another doctor and again the reports were all normal and both of the doctor couldn't explain about this but after some research by myself i found out that I have this vasovagal syncope...idk if I should take medication or not.
This is so eerily similar to my experience. I always think I’m being woke up from sleep , and my chest hurts and has a lot of pressure and I can’t really see or move and I’m trying to figure out what I’m waking up from and why I can’t move or speak, I also scream for help every time and remember none of it. I spoke to a dr about it but they kind of blew it off as a low tolerance to pain, even though I’ve experienced much greater pain than the times I passed out. My wife says I convulse and shake and snore
I have never seen anyone talk about partial syncope!! I had an episode about a year ago where I lost my vision & sight while at a store, additionally I lost the ability to hold things or stand. I was fully conscious and muttering for my boyfriend who had just walked away. So happy to see it discussed
My doctor called it “pre-syncope.” I lost vision and muscle tone (fell to the floor) during my worst episode but I still was awake in my mind so I didn’t fully faint. My vasovagal episodes start with severe nausea then ear ringing, then cold sweat, then loss of muscle tone. I am actually somewhat “lucky” because i have such an extended prodromal period. Apparently my sister just hits the floor with little to no warning. My mom has it too. She used to get very faint at the sight of blood especially when she was in high school.
Once had a Vasovagal Syncope episode a few years ago when I was 19. Woke up one morning not late, but severely behind schedule for work. My mother came in yelling for me to get up and ready, as I was. I began getting into my factory uniform and literally the next thing I knew I was face-down in my room's corner screaming with a stinging sensation all over my body as I was sweating profusely. Called out, got checked out, head scan, etc. Came back as Vasovagal Syncope.
I had a syncope episode yesterday, first time that ever happened to me. I was walking a few steps away from the doors and walked inside to my legs feeling like they were going numb, I knew this was bad so I immediately started walking towards a wall and luckily I sat on the ground before my eyes darkened. I was told to go upstairs after I had some eyesight coming back, but when I started walking up the stairs everything turned from blue to yellow, it was so weird but I was near my friends room to quickly lay down 😂 jeez that’s scary watching someone else go through it!
*first warning sign I didn’t know was a warning was a headache :’) and another thing, as my eyes darkened and when I went to lay down I heard a very loud and unpleasant ringing in my ears 😭
Not apparently when it happens to me, my eyes roll back into my head and I seizure. Meanwhile in my brain, I’m hallucinating things and hearing my heart and breathing at the same time. Such a crazy experience
This is crazy! No one believes me when I tell them I thought I was awake and seeing weird trippy stuff and hearing music 😭 and the whole time I was passed out having “seizure” movements as well!
Yeah so I’ve gotten therapy for it because I ended up in the hospital feeling heart attack like symptoms. They did all the tests but diagnosed me with panic disorder and the obvious anxiety disorder. I’ve seen a psychologist and I’m on Zoloft and when it gets really bad, I have Ativan. All in all though it really calms down to that mind-body connection. You have to really remember to breathe. It’s when you start hyperventilating (without knowing) that you’re in trouble. It’s a never-ending healing journey.
I’m 24 and have been having these “black outs” since I was little. Never thought anything of it until recently. Did you have to under go a lot of tests?? Were your doctors able to diagnose and help you fast or were there some doubts about your symptoms? I worry they won’t be able to understand and I won’t get the aid I need.
There are different techniques you can perform to prevent an episode. 1) is squatting 2) cross your legs and tighten your legs and buttocks 3) put your hands together and try pulling your hands apart. The idea is to get blood back to your heart and brain before you faint.
I was at a funeral when this happened. Growing up I had noticed this was happening to me but I knew how to avoid it. I would feel an aura coming but I would sit down immediately and have to talk to myself so it could stop. I would have to close my eyes. I felt the aura at the funeral but I couldn’t sit down because it would’ve been disrespectful. This was the first time I let it happen. It was dreadful and surprised cause I never knew it was a seizure. My eyes rolled back and I was clenched in the jaw and my legs were shaking.
I still have no idea what this is after watching this. I had one a couple weeks ago and it was the first I had absolutely no control of im also 19 but this has happened randomly through out my life and controllable like you said. Nothing hurts about it it feels relaxing actually but it’s concerning because it leaves me quite confused literally
this has happened to me just yesterday and all of the nurses surrounded me because i had apparently fallen over into one of them as my eyes rolled back into my head they said i started shaking very rapidly. in my own head directly before this everyone’s voice had started to echo and then boom lights out there was this connection between being dead and sleeping that i felt as a movie started playing in my head. meanwhile the doctors said that during this time my eyes were open but my entire iris had turned black. soon back to me my eyes had shrunk and then about five seconds later i threw up and woke up at the same time the weird thing is that i can remember that i had this “dream” about a movie but not the movie happening i was very unaware of certain things and i had no idea how long i’d been out. after what happened yesterday i have been very forgetful and can’t remember things in the past and it is still hard for me to try to tell people things becuase i’ll forget that too. i’ve also realized that when i stand i tend to get dizzy normally that doesn’t happen
Your comment describes perfectly what I experienced yesterday! I had just consumed iodine contrast and when they pushed saline through my i.v, I started experiencing the worst nausea. I told them I was gonna pass out, and I did a few seconds later. They said my eyes rolled in the back of my head, and I started convulsing like this, with my hands drawn up towards my chest. I came to some seconds later, but I felt like I dreamt about Elvis Presley and he was telling me to come back lol. As I awakened I felt hot and cold in flashes and was sweating on my arms and had the most extreme ringing in the ears. I also broke out in a rash on my knuckles, elbows and scalp. It was uncomfortable to say the least. I thought I died.
I’m 44 and have had this condition from the age of 12. The loss of memory is very apparent as now after experiencing well over 20 full episodes of unconsciousness, that representing only a third of these events, with the remaining third being partial episodes and not drifting to the abyss. The common factor of each episode is the very present loss of long term memory. At this point in my life I have very little memory of my past. What I have begun to notice more recently is that I am beginning to realize I am I am not retaining recent or new memories. A very unsettling byproduct of this condition.
@@mrsdragonite I had a similar experience back in May. I was in the passenger seat while my girlfriend was driving. Had the sweats and got light headed/weak. Told her I don't feel good. Also had a dream like/de ja vu like vision before I went out. I thought I saw James Hetfield from Metallica with long hair and the handle bar mustache haha. I went out and my girlfriend said the same thing about the hands clenched to my chest. I had woken up no more than 5 seconds later a little confused but knew I had passed out. I had bad nausea after as well. The worrying thing was the Deja Vu and I also had urinary incontinence, which are more seizure related. Went to the ER and they ran blood work, EKG, CT scan, and all normal. Diagnosed it as Vasovagal Syncope. Doing a EEG and MRI this month to dig a little deeper. Haven't had an episode since (fingers crossed). Hope the tests come back with good news! Hope you are well too!
this exact thing happened to me a few weeks ago, scared the hell out of me beacuse ive never gone through anything like that and no one in my family had a history of seizures. and it felt exactly like inbetween death and sleep but i was “dreaming” that i was in a store and was laying on the floor with my legs crossed hunched over with awful yellow lighting. it felt like i couldn’t breath and my mom was trying to wake me and i could hear her perfectly but it was so weird because it felt like i couldnt breathe. later in the hospital my fainting episode was caused by severe dehydration.
Thank you so much for posting this. It answers some questions I had about my own event earlier this year. Doctors can't decide if it's seizure of syncope.
I have a similar situation going on now. I was Unsure if I blacked out or had a syncope episode. But I used to have seizures long ago, not on any meds, all my labs and head mri are all normal, doctors recommending me see a neurologist to rule out seizures. Hopefully not the case, doctors think I am crazy when I told them all that happened to me!
@@countrychic30 Is anyone testing you for POTS or VVS? Both of those can be misdiagnosed as seizures. And I know it can be hard to find doctors who are willing to do the investigation that is needed.
@@authenticmslife no, I have not seen a neurologist yet. That doc is booked up for another month, I have been telling my pcd everything and he looks at me like I am crazy. My doc recommended I put up a camera in my house cause I live alone currently. I had a similar mysterious episode of this happen 2 days ago, I am okay but I am sore in my ribs and my blood pressure was low. My dumb camera did not catch anything due to a glitch.
@@countrychic30 I'm sorry you are going through this. These sorts of things are so badly misunderstood by doctors. Can you request to see an internist while you wait for the neurologist? I was referred to one while I waited for a neurologist, and I found she was very diligent and understanding. I think internists tend to be a lot more determined to solve these mysteries than other doctors often are.
@@authenticmslife thank you! This kind of thing just popped up outta nowhere, I am healthy no problems whatsoever, just been a little stressed. But I will talk with my pcd and see if who they recommend right quick. Cause I just want to know what happened and why, I feel like at times like this I am backed into a wall when no one takes me seriously. Since this incident occurred I have taken steps to reduce stress in my life, been writing down everything that I remember about that day, and just going slow doing stuff around my home. 1 thing I have been trying for a long time to get is my drivers license here in nc, I have a permit, but with this mystery I am not getting behind a wheel til I know what is happening and how to treat this. I would feel guilty if I unknowingly caused an accident if I have another syncope episode.
It appears that I am predisposed to syncopal episodes with various triggers such as standing up after waking, skipping a meal, needles/sight of my blood or injections, and extreme pain. This video gives me a perspective on what my episodes look like as only a few incidents have been witnessed by others, as I’ve mainly been alone when fainting. It really doesn’t feel as bad as it looks, but damn it looks scary.
You might find this information helpful. If, in fact, your vagus nerve is responsible for your condition, the good news is that there are exercises you can do to stimulate and strengthen it. Having a healthy, diverse gut microbiome helps as well, since the gut microbiome communicates with the brain via the vagus nerve. ruclips.net/user/liveGdr60-ROHnM?feature=shared
It happened to me when I fell from a tall tree. I had broken my ankle, but I eventually fainted. I was lost in my thoughts, and I could still hear the things around me. I woke up at some point but I never had any track of time. It was a weird experience. And my visioned slowly started blacked out when and I was fighting it since I knew this would happen, since I have a track record of it happening.
Just watched my dad dude do this last night. Thought I was watching him die in front of me. It’s had me shook and it’s hard to sleep and no recreate it in a dream. I understand all the people that go through it say “it not that bad” but watching it was scary asf. No one believed me while I was trying to explain what happened
My wife and I just watched our daughter go through one of these episodes and felt we were watching her pass right in front of us. She came back after about 30 seconds and will be ok from here. What an absolutely terrifying experience though. I am so sorry you had to experience this as well and I hope you can recover and the memory softens a little over time.
Just last night my 25 year old baby brother was sitting at the table with the family, all of us about to play a game of Yahtzee, and for the first time in his life had this experience. Thankfully we were all there and helped gently ease him to the floor as he leaned far back in his chair, straightening his body out with his eyes staring blankly and mouth agape. He didn't convulse, just stiffened up so bad that we could hardly adjust his body as he slid under the table, so we had to move the table instead. It only lasted 30 seconds for him, but for us it felt like a lifetime. I immediately tried to call 911 because I thought we were seeing him have a heart attack or burst aneurism, a million things ran through my head. But he came to himself quickly and was able to function normally, recollecting prior events and speaking normally, which relieved us tremendously. His arms hurt from tensing up still, but we are thankful that it wasn't as serious as it first seemed.
I have a predisposition to vagal response when experiencing sharp pain in my wrist area. Have experienced this quite a few times during cannulation. I tolerate arm, elbow and back of hand extremely well, but the moment cannulation is attempted on my inner wrist, it induces a severe vagal response causing nausea and syncope. Fascinating how the nervous system responds to certain triggers.
When I have coughing fits and can’t catch my breath this happens to me. Luckily I’m usually in the sitting position or lying down when this happens and only when I have a really bad cough.
My husband is the same way and it seems like he’s out longer than these people are. It also takes him a good while to recover. He will start feeling better in 45 minutes to an hour but will still need a day to feel strong again. His episodes are related to illness, usually a fever, or anything nausea related. He just had an episode today but thankfully was in bed when it happened.
This happened to me once, I had really violent jerks so people thought I was having a seizure. This was right in the middle of COVID and I was freshly 18 so I had to go to the ER alone for the first time. Was there for around 7 hours. But hey at least it wasn’t a seizure
i do it with my friends all the time, but everyone i talk to says theyre scared to do it. it could never be a craze here because everyones too scared to do it 😭
I have convulsive syncope and happened to me today after I got my 1st Moderna shot. It's always shocking for the onlookers who think Im having a seizure. Usually my vision goes blurred, eyes roll in to the back of my head and I wake up in a pile of sweat with chills. I don't remember anything.
@@BeckyBebeh865 someone said mine were blue, and I had them take a photo with my phone. I didn’t feel comfortable looking at it until now (7 hours later) but they don’t look blue to me.
When this happens to me (This Monday so recent) I can feel myself having a seizure with my eyes rolling to the back of my head and feeling trapped helplessly in hell in my own head. I never used to have seizures till just over a year ago.
@@YoussefAitAli-hi5zf I'll worsen it more so by adding that my PCV/LGV /bike/car licence has been revoked. Despite this happening very very rare, with a trigger of sudden injury, (8 times in 51 years despite being injured many many times) and it has no affect on my ability to drive for the past 34 years unless I was to break my arm whilst driving, the DVLA have told me I have epilepsy and suffer from unexplained random blackouts. I can no longer work and have lost all freedoms, my job, my hobbies, everything. There's nothing wrong with me and medical professionals have told them so and i'm fighting to get it back.
@@923rememberme6 I have vasovagal syncope & have myoclonic jerks/spasms. It happened again in 2022 when I had to have a blood test as needles make me pass out
I think incomplete syncope might be what happens to me sometimes. My vision goes dark and I get a weird taste in my mouth, my body gets all tingly, then my legs go limp and I fall. I'm not 100% sure if I fully lose consciousness though, and it only ever lasts a few seconds.
Have you seen your doctor about this? Could be simple partial seizures with those neuro symptoms that accompany it, would be worth discussing with your doctor.
When this happens to me my eyes roll to the back of my head, eyelids flicker, I and I just stop moving. I'm thinking normally at this time but I can't respond for a few moments.
Wonderful thank you. I've had several episodes and don't have a clue why. I'm putting it down to stress but now have an internal heart monitor to see if it's that. Yesterday mornings was in a shower 1mx1m... No injury which you'd expect in such a confined space just straight down... And then trying to get up! As if I'm drunk or my knees have just given way!
@@tylermaasdsam8238no. Turned out mine was stress. Had a heart monitor fitted and never triggered when I had an episode! Remove the stress remove the problem!
I’ve had this happen to me quite a few times throughout the last 10ish years, I just had it again about 2 weeks ago- at this point I’ve had it enough that I can tell when it’s coming so I lay on the floor before I fall.. the jerking motion was so bad this time that I cracked my forehead open and had to go to the hospital to get a bunch of stitches, now I have a huge scar across my face 😭
For me I start shaking super bad before I pass out I think idk no one was there with me but I just remember not being able to hold myself up Bc I was shaking so bad and my vision went black and I think I was out for a couple secs
I was helping my friend move and i felt so tired and felt like i just stood up too fast and it kept getting worse and worse in seconds and i don't remember passing out all i remember is waking up on the floor with my friend trying to wake me up. i fell face first and he said i was seizing kinda but I'm fine now my tooth went through my lip as i fell but now I'm fine
Always try to get to a safe place where you can sit down, especially if you are feeling shortness of breath. Standing for too long. Being dehydrated Missing meals Hypertension Migraines with aura Physical pain Menstrual Cycle can all be triggers
I came here for more info on seizures/ synscope. In the last 6 years I’ve had 4 episodes, 3 of which an ambulance was called one was at the dr surgery which was the last one and the dr labeled it vasovagal synscope. But it seems that is more so just fainting. Every episode I’ve had I have lost conscious and I’m not sure for how long but long enough for someone to call an ambulance. Losing consciousness would also appear as fainting. I also have violent trashing of my limbs and eyes roll back into head which to me seems more like a seizer. Each time I’ve woken disorientated and have no clue what had just happened and feeling awful afterwards. One time I lost control of my bladder, woke up and started running in a panic. The very first time this happened was when I was a child I ran down a hill, tripped and hit my head on a rock. Every time I’ve had an episode anyone that is present has been in fear I was going to die. I haven’t yet seen a video similar to what I experience. As for the trigger it seems to be under high stress/ injury but I’ve had many injuries where nothing happened. One time I fainted during a tattoo (4th one and didn’t eat beforehand) but nothing happened, I’ve had hundreds of tattoos since with no problems.
I might ad the last time I distinctively remember my hearing went to like an electrical buzzing noise, my vision was like pressing pause on a movie but seeing more white then anything. My brain seemed active as if I was having normal thoughts but I was hyper focused on my thoughts. I was having stitches put in my ankle that I had cut open about 5 hours prior. When I came to my first thoughts was why is everything all over the floor and no stitches in, the look on the drs face was priceless he was in absolute shock and my wife was fighting to keep me still. The last thing I remembered was the antithetic wasn’t working
When I'm about to go out I hear what sounds like static in my ears and then I just kinda enter a dream state for a few seconds, my arms move around a bit too.
This just happned to me for the first time only a couple hours ago so I was researching it. I just remember not feeling so well after my hot shower and all i can remember is everything going dark. it felt as though i was dreaming but i couldn't remember what of. it felt very peaceful though and all the sickness i felt went away in that moment. it felt very quick but I guess i was out for good minute cause when i woke up i was very dizzy and my mom was over me crying screaming my name and on the phone with 911. she was honestly scared I was gonna die because my eyes where rolled back but open and i was shaking like a seizure and getting very pale and at a point not moving like this video. I am okay! but it was a little scary!!!
I have Vasovagal Syncope, and I faint constantly. It is ambiguous whether or not I have had a seizure, but most fundamentally, I am unconscious 75% of my fainting spells.
I am going through same and I am not liking it at all my doctor is also going to suspend my license to prohibit me from driving. What recommendations have u got? I also start to hyperventilate, gets very cold and shivver crazy and BP drops extremely low. M very upset with this..
My wife has Convulsive Vaso Vagul Syncope her triggers are so far vomiting, child birth but anything that jolts nerve endings a bumped elbow sight of blood etc.. can trigger , she carry’s anti vomiting medication Zofren and others, she was advised to be the first to have surgery for the day if it is ever needed .
@@artajks203 if the neurologist can’t trigger a seizure and your heart is ok if you can work out triggers it’s probably not epilepsy I am able to drive as the episode’s are in common, 🤞🏻🤞🏻
Some seem real, others, I can't tell. I'm awake for most. When I was real sick at work two years ago, I blacked out twice. I did not realize the shunt stopped working. Had three surgeries in nine months. I feel more embrassed. Something I have tried to hide my entire life. I live on my own too.
For me it's not very seizure like- it's feels like your muscles are jerking out of your control but it's also like your extremities are fighting to regain control 😢
So I’ve been in a few jiu jitsu tournaments. In said tournaments if I’m being choked out I will let myself pass out before I give up and tap out. According to everyone at the tournament last time I went I started seizing on the floor and shaking violently. In my head I had a vivid feeling like I was falling so that’s why I could feel myself moving out of panic of falling. When I woke up I was initially surprised that I wasn’t in bed, then apparently started laughing maniacally but I can’t remember laughing.
This was happening to me about once or twice a year in the last 10 to 15 years. I definitely noticed a pattern in that it would happen after I have had some alcohol even if it’s not a lot. Then when I wake up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom, I start to feel the fainting sensation While I’m urinating, and the only way to stop it is to stop urinating by force. It’s like my blood pressure is dropping fast. That worked for many years. I would just slowly lay on the floor and wait. Unfortunately, the last time it happened I fell flat on my face, ended up in the ER with 9 stitches on my forehead. Luckily, I was not wearing my eyeglasses at the time I fell. I stopped drinking since then. It hasn’t happened again it’s been three years. One thing I noticed is the starting position on the video is almost the same as sitting on the toilet. Look closely how they designed the mat. The legs are positioned lower. Now I’m wondering if maybe this happens when the toilet is too low and perhaps having a higher toilet is safer? Maybe something about blood pooling in the hips? I don’t know… Something in the body that happens in that particular semi squatting position. I usually sit while urinating but it has happened also when I’m standing. I also noticed I’m easily prone to convulsions. Like when I have a fever that’s a little high I get convulsions. I am skinny with very little body fat, it feels like I’m freezing.
I am wondering if this is a mild version of this because when it happens to me it can last way longer thant this and when i come out its very slow and i am out of it for a really long time basically happened to me on my way to the ER then at ER i fell i guess I dont remember any of the ER visit my wife told me what the Doctor said from what she could understand
This has been happening to me more and more frequent (just about every time I stand up) I try my best to lean against a wall but sometimes it just sneaks up on me and suddenly I wake up on the floor breathing rlly hard. I usually stand up then everything slowly goes black then I fall and I feel like I’m flying through a tornado and I always end up falling face first and hitting my head on something
I relate to this so much, I can't tell if it's normal or not. I get triggered by a mixture of fear and anxiety I get whenever I think something is wrong with my body, even if it's really stupid, then my senses start to fail me, I try to calm down and I think I was successful but then I realize something is actually wrong and I feel like I'm flying through a tornado desperately trying to hold on to something and come back and I hear songs in my head and have messy thoughts. When I wake up I'm really cold and shaking and the anxiety makes me nauseous. Does that happen to you too?
@@stellaalemanno1932 This is textbook what happens to me, even if its really really stupid... I dont hear songs as much as I do just completly random, but happy thoughts. When I wake up I'm normally drenched. The rollercoaster your brain goes on, yea I feel that.
I have had a vagal episode 4 times in my life, never fainted. Once when I saw the epidural being administered during my sons birth, once when I woke up too fast, once when I was constipated, and once when I saw a fish getting gutted
When i started fainting i thought i was dying it was very weird and i could hear my heart beat it felt like i was spinning but my eyes were closed i also once spinned in like chair spinning things while looking down and when i looked up my eyes started to close and it felt like i was fainting again then i woke up some seconds later. 😓
This happened to me yesterday in a hot tub…..I stood up and had to sit right back down. Then I started to try to fight it then a flash of light then boom. I had head jerks with entire body movement and hit the back of my head multiple times and I felt and heard everything….just couldn’t do anything about it. I could only think in my head……it was like the episode when Derek Shepard died in Grays anatomy. I was in my head like “wait who’s pulling me?”, “Is this a heart attack? No, there’s my heart” so many thoughts in a few seconds. Scared the hell out of my partner
nurses are always convinced that I'm faking, but something like this has happened to me a few times now, buts always really aggressive jerking mostly in my legs, repeatedly going completely limp for a few seconds before getting back to the shaking, and apparently it had gone on for a couple hours but I only remembered about 10 minutes of it. I had moments of semi consciousness where I could say some words but I could only get like one word out at a time and I was repeating it rapidly
It happened to me yesterday when i was literally in toilet for more than 20 Minutes bc of constipation,I remember that I’d gotten up from squatting position,when i opened eyes I was bit confused where i was at…I wasclearly blanked out ,really like passing out….my specs glass came out…I’d mild fever for which I have been taking medicines for two days and there’s hypotension Issue….too……..like I passed out…….I have 3or4 stitches on my left forehead 😿
I was just standing in the kitchen… head started spinning.. so I sat down, fell out the chair unconscious but I could still hear what sounded like yelling from my moms… idk why this keeps happening
I fainted for the first time earlier. I was having a blood test (they took five vials of blood) and before they pulled out the needle I started to feel sick, my hearing went and I couldn’t see very well Then I woke up really confused I had hit my head on the wall behind me, fallen on the nurse and I was apparently twitching and my eyes were open
The same happens to me every time I have a blood test. It has happened to me since I was a child, so now I know that I should always tell the nurse/doctor about it and lay down while I have the blood test so I don´t get hurt during the seizure.
I used to feel fainting coming a whole morning, then black out bang my head and wake up, never got it checked, from 16 to 21 this happened, then began morning nausea blindness and tingling and numbness and the worst inability to do anything so id close my eyes a massive wave would rise to my head, it would ring and i would come out of it without falling aslong as i put my eyes into my inside elbow and hold onto a counter. Then bacame random feeling thoughts episodes of clumsiness, idiot like behaviour and without reason so i continues to learn physics, science, history, and everything i can with over the top excitability and joy, later learning i would develop tonic clonic seizures, generalised idiopathic epilepsy, constant unsteadiness and focal, and absence seizures bad memory and feeling lost whilst in the middle of a super strong thought... The fits ultimately have left forgetful of the conplex vocabulary i once had 😢 and a lot of the things im fixing in life could have been solved had i been diagnosed at 16, instead it was 24 when i woke up to water over me and my partner on the phone to 999 with the ambulance coming.. syncopy fainting and epilepsy have a massive stigma and telling people im disabled doesnt help the fact ive always had amxiety and depression, and now got left thoracic msk, maybe due to the fits i hadnt noticed i had before it was noticed and acted upon. Now im carbamazepine and have nothing for my absenses and focal aware seizures meanin a lot of the time i see darkened vision tunnel vision get numb or strokey, and tingly or stumble, then i stare blank out and forget everything everyday even though i will always say i won't haha if i stand up theres never a promise i dont have an aura and then it go away sometimes i have a good few hour before been in a thought maybe talking to somebody and have this forgetdul anxiety in the pit of my soul and realise im trying to absense its weird
I had my first faint today It was a combination of standing up too fast and possibly being dehydrated For i stood up because i heard something outside and as usual (when i stand up to fast) my vision started to fade out but this time it was longer than normal then i heard a series off glass clinking on glass and all that stuff from what was on my desk and then my vision started to return as i had fallen on a donut plush first thing i said was “wth” and then I realized i has bitten my lip open and scratched my elbow with the desk and that made me really confused throughout the entire thing TLDR: it felt like i was awake for the entire thing though i couldn’t see anything
This has been happening to me since I was a kid when I stretch or have my arms over head or hang from bars to stretch my back. If I hold the stretch too long I fall to the ground and twitch but I’m certain I don’t lose consciousness.
This has started happening to me Have you spoken to a dr about it? If yes, I’m curious as to what treatment/management they gave you I was thinking of speaking to a doctor only for them basically to tell me not to stretch or do whatever causes the episode lol
This is exactly what happens to me the past two years. I get a weird feeling then I stretch and faint. Sometimes I’ll just stretch and faint and have slight twitching, I get migraines frequently and my eye twitches ar times. I have seen a cardiologist and they told me I had vasovagal syncope but my heart test came back regular... and because of the stretching it doesn’t sit right with me, I am going to see a neurologist.. but have you been diagnosed with anything yet? I need closure it’s really stressing me out.

@@laylahussein5327 unfortunately I have no idea what is wrong with me because it’s only started happening in the past few weeks. I’ve started stretching to help correct my poor posture and when I stretch “too far” I pass out Good luck looking into treatment/diagnosis, it’s not fun to have
When I was ten years old in our class my friends and I used to have holding breathe competitions I joined in once and held my breathe for so long the my friends told me my face turned purple and eyes rolled back to my head and I could see my self in third person I was also told I vomited and I had a seizure like shaking but to be true I felt nothing
My class has no teacher in it because of recent events they are all leaving the school. The substitute is young and didn’t know it was a bad idea to let 9th graders have a competition to see who can go the longest being choked without tapping out. I passed out yesterday and had seizing motions and had a dream I was falling. We aren’t allowed to play anymore. But hey, I still won.
Apparently my head twitches to the side and I regain consciousness before I'm out yet again. I didn't know this but I do know that I scared my friend really good.
If you worry about the consequences of such experiments -- vasovagal faint either natural or intentional does virtually zero harm to your health. Except the harm you can get from hitting the pavement by your head, of course. Don't trust papers about "choking games" -- the goal of such papers is to alarm the society about dangerous teen games, but they make no difference between really deadly playing with a rope around the neck and making yourself faint by breathing exercises. Last thing is only dangerous with injures from uncontrollable falls and for people already having serious heart problems.
Actually today I fainted and all people around me came and crowded then I thought it was dream but it's too hurting and my eyes going up I thought I was almost dead then I closed my eyes after few minutes I opened and I was alright
Woah, I just had this happen to me today for the first time… it was a wild ride I must say. It was my first post op appointment and had my bandages removed also my drains… fainted and started shaking crazy my vision went all white and was dreaming/hallucinating while hearing my surroundings. Since this happened is it like going to keep happening or ??? Should I visit a doctor specifically for this ?
I have always wondered what this was called. It happens to me a lot. Last episode i was going down the stairs but luckily i kept hold of the railing and fell backwards.
what i’ve noticed that nobody else seems to experience is when i’ve woken up i have no clue where im at and i freak out and start panicking and it’s truly a fucked up experience
I just fainted yesterday, it feels like you are sleeping, but i remember i hit the toilet door and i heard a small fraction of sound, when i woke up ,i heard small voice of my mother and getting louder, then i was concious
any amount of time works to an extent, but since they seem to be out for a longer time and are twitching quite a bit, id say probably 1 minute or a minute and a half
I had just consumed iodine contrast for a CT scan yesterday, and when they pushed saline through my i.v, I started experiencing the worst nausea. I told them I was gonna pass out, and I did few seconds later. They said my eyes rolled in the back of my head, and I started convulsing like this, with my hands drawn up towards my chest. I came to some seconds later, but I felt like I dreamt about Elvis Presley and he was telling me to come back lol. As I awakened I felt hot and cold in flashes and was sweating on my arms. I had the most extreme ringing in the ears. I also broke out in a rash on my knuckles, elbows and scalp. It was uncomfortable to say the least. I thought I died.
Doing research because last night I fell down twice and one of the 2 times i must have hit my head because I have a bump. While I must have been twitching, I pulled something in my back. I don't remember being able to see while it was happening until I was starting to come back to, but I could feel myself thrashing on my bedroom carpet, but could not control or stop it. After the first one, there was about 25 seconds between feeling alright and then starting to swoop back out of it and then I went down in the bathroom on the tile. But I remember thinking why the f is this happening right now and why can't I stop and then I would come to slowly. I went to urgent care this morning and they couldn't notice anything wrong other than the bump so they said if you wanna further it, get some Bloodwork, but you seem neurologically fine. I didn't know you can have a mini seizure just from fainting. , It's just the body passing out and freaking out. The worst part about this in my opinion is not knowing the cause of it.
so sitting at a dinner with my family i pass out and have a seizure on the floor my dad held me up till i woke up and was taken to the hospital mind you this is my first time this ever happened to me. Long story short i was taking linsooprol for highblood pressure and hydrochlor. a water pill i was 250lbs when i began these medications i started going to the gym 2 years later i went down to 200lbs and turns out the medications were causing my blood pressure to drop because i didnt need them anymore being that i lost weight. No wonder in my days of being 200 lbs i would feel weak basically they were doing me harm , why am i writing this because there might be someone out there on the same grind working out but on these type of meds just a heads up
Idk what i have as it wasnt epileptic. I stand and then have a right side attack that my head turns to one side my arm comes up to my chest twisting all about. Im aware the whole time and dont always fall. Yet it happens numerous times a day when standing or walking after standing for a while.
I recently watched my love my life my soul flame got through this and i think it was triggered by her drinking and smoking a hookah without eating much but her mom and grandma told her they had the same thing so i prayed over my love and she has been fine ever since
updates as of 2024? im curious i also am having this issue when standing up quickly or after sitting during a car ride and getting out itll happen if i get up to fast have u found answers or anything? im 19 seems like mine are every other day now
I have these and neurologist is trying to diagnose further. I’ve been doing these since I was 13. My body shuts down and heavy breathing and feel like imma pee/poop myself eye rolling limp and sweating. One time I seen the white light. At times I have two back to back
I have complex partial epileptic seizure. And during lengthy walk or standing I'll get this sudden blackout like a second or two. But I didn't get fainted. Just like someone turning off my brain switch for a couple of second there. Then afterwards its like my brain would slowly regained consciousness and back to its normal conditions. But still the vertigo and dizziness still there.
It now is happening at least once a day I can feel it coming and I have basic control of at least half my body only during major episodes do i fall on ground but i can fight it well and control my basic functions
Happens to me nearly daily as I can self induce it. Best natural high and it's so trippy. It's like I'm transported into a different time and dimension.
BRO SAME. I do it and it's so fun and I feel like I'm dreaming or in another reality but I can't remember anything. The funny thing is that I don't tell people I do it because it sounds so dumb and it's so difficult to explain. I love doing it though lmao.
@@Lily-um9tj can be scary. I fit sometimes. But the only danger that I've heard from doctors is if you fall and hit your head. I bend my knees and place hands to the ground as soon as it begins to onset. It passes quickly.
@@mindcave yeah, sometimes when i do it i get this feeling im about to start like having a fit and spasming then i dont and my heart starts beating slowly but extremely heavily, like my whole body is just thumping.
dude I had my hands around the railing of the top of a bunk bed when I fainted but I didn't even fall down it was so weird... after I'd blacked out I remember being somewhat conscious while my limbs jerked all around out of my control it was crazy.
this happened to me once, but i was standing up. usually when i get up off the couch, my vision gets pretty dark and i get that weird euphoric feeling. but just a few months ago i got up off the couch, got the usual tunnel vision, but then i started twitching and gyrating uncontrollably. i managed to keep my balance despite being like half conscious, lol.
I gave up looking for the original research videos until i accidentally find THIS. HOLY SHIT THIS FOOTAGE IS PURE HISTORICAL GOLD
the fact that something so interesting and crazy to experience can be induced so easily and quickly is just amazing to me.
I have horrible anxiety leading up to fainting, but usually after an episode I’m totally calm and physically relaxed.
do u drool during it?
I love doing Intermittent Hypoxia, it makes me feel like I am leaving my body
@@thebutterfluffman6855 There's been sometimes that I've drooled because of it
I was recently diagnosed with pnes at some episode of fainting i liked it cause it was like escaping for few sec and most of them i hated it feels like i was causing it myself
This is me... im glad im not the only one. So I may have this instead?
I have fainted several times now but have myself never seen someone faint until yesterday at work. I thought they were having a seizure, but I'm thankful I found this video because I had no idea that people can faint and have seizure-like movements.
i have mini tiny dreams in my head when this happens to me
When it happens i cant ever remember them either
same there was like a movie playing in my head once i passed out but when i woke up i couldn’t rember what happened in it i just remember the movie happening
@@mckodfam4059 exactly
Same with me I have them too
Same, this is actually a symptom that it is a vasovagal syncope instead of a seizure since ppl with seizures don’t have dreams when they experience an episode, but around 16% of ppl w vasovagal syncope do.
I had one myself, I thought I’d died. It honestly wasn’t that bad an experience, if I had died then it was peaceful. No pain or anything
same i was in my bathroom and i stretched and everything went black and my body went numb. i felt my body shaking and heard everything on my counter falling and nothing made sense like i was in a dream like state
I have these everytime and mine is surprisingly extremely painful everytime it’s like im in a constant dream and everything’s going very fast and it feels like I’m tingling but it hurts and it does feel like im dieing I had one today and shook severally and my vision was completely black I didn’t know where I was it was pretty bad
Bruh same but my hands locked up and I fail to the floor and I was conscious then everything went blank
I JUST HAD MY FIRST ONE TODAY AND IT REALLY DID FEEL LIKE I DIED AND WAS REVIVED TOO
I felt sick to my stomach
I think this is what happens to me. It’s happened twice now, once on December 9,2022 and once today July 17,2024. It’s very short but within that time my brain thinks “okay I’m sleeping, wait why am I sleeping, I’m supposed to be doing ___” and then my vision gradually comes back. Both times witnesses have said that I was kind of shaking on the floor, and the first time it happened they said that my eyes were kind of rolling back (the first time the people were closer to me, so it might’ve happened the second time) I went to the doctor the first time it happened and they couldn’t explain what it was, so thank you for this!
I have the same symptoms, mine have happened 3 times, first on 14 may 2023 then on 24 June 2024 and last time was on 24 July, my parents are kinda terrified because of the accident and we consult to the doctor twice, first when I had this attack for the first time and my report outcome was absolutely normal but when I had for the second and third time we again consulted to an another doctor and again the reports were all normal and both of the doctor couldn't explain about this but after some research by myself i found out that I have this vasovagal syncope...idk if I should take medication or not.
This is so eerily similar to my experience. I always think I’m being woke up from sleep , and my chest hurts and has a lot of pressure and I can’t really see or move and I’m trying to figure out what I’m waking up from and why I can’t move or speak, I also scream for help every time and remember none of it. I spoke to a dr about it but they kind of blew it off as a low tolerance to pain, even though I’ve experienced much greater pain than the times I passed out. My wife says I convulse and shake and snore
I have never seen anyone talk about partial syncope!! I had an episode about a year ago where I lost my vision & sight while at a store, additionally I lost the ability to hold things or stand. I was fully conscious and muttering for my boyfriend who had just walked away. So happy to see it discussed
My doctor called it “pre-syncope.” I lost vision and muscle tone (fell to the floor) during my worst episode but I still was awake in my mind so I didn’t fully faint. My vasovagal episodes start with severe nausea then ear ringing, then cold sweat, then loss of muscle tone. I am actually somewhat “lucky” because i have such an extended prodromal period. Apparently my sister just hits the floor with little to no warning. My mom has it too. She used to get very faint at the sight of blood especially when she was in high school.
Once had a Vasovagal Syncope episode a few years ago when I was 19. Woke up one morning not late, but severely behind schedule for work. My mother came in yelling for me to get up and ready, as I was. I began getting into my factory uniform and literally the next thing I knew I was face-down in my room's corner screaming with a stinging sensation all over my body as I was sweating profusely. Called out, got checked out, head scan, etc. Came back as Vasovagal Syncope.
I had a syncope episode yesterday, first time that ever happened to me. I was walking a few steps away from the doors and walked inside to my legs feeling like they were going numb, I knew this was bad so I immediately started walking towards a wall and luckily I sat on the ground before my eyes darkened. I was told to go upstairs after I had some eyesight coming back, but when I started walking up the stairs everything turned from blue to yellow, it was so weird but I was near my friends room to quickly lay down 😂 jeez that’s scary watching someone else go through it!
*first warning sign I didn’t know was a warning was a headache :’) and another thing, as my eyes darkened and when I went to lay down I heard a very loud and unpleasant ringing in my ears 😭
Just had this today lol
Not apparently when it happens to me, my eyes roll back into my head and I seizure. Meanwhile in my brain, I’m hallucinating things and hearing my heart and breathing at the same time. Such a crazy experience
This is crazy! No one believes me when I tell them I thought I was awake and seeing weird trippy stuff and hearing music 😭 and the whole time I was passed out having “seizure” movements as well!
Did you find any treatment for it
Yeah so I’ve gotten therapy for it because I ended up in the hospital feeling heart attack like symptoms. They did all the tests but diagnosed me with panic disorder and the obvious anxiety disorder. I’ve seen a psychologist and I’m on Zoloft and when it gets really bad, I have Ativan. All in all though it really calms down to that mind-body connection. You have to really remember to breathe. It’s when you start hyperventilating (without knowing) that you’re in trouble. It’s a never-ending healing journey.
I’m 24 and have been having these “black outs” since I was little. Never thought anything of it until recently. Did you have to under go a lot of tests?? Were your doctors able to diagnose and help you fast or were there some doubts about your symptoms? I worry they won’t be able to understand and I won’t get the aid I need.
@@liizbeth76 My wife hears music
i finally have an answer after a year of dealing with this thinking I was having actual seizures
There are different techniques you can perform to prevent an episode. 1) is squatting 2) cross your legs and tighten your legs and buttocks 3) put your hands together and try pulling your hands apart. The idea is to get blood back to your heart and brain before you faint.
I was at a funeral when this happened. Growing up I had noticed this was happening to me but I knew how to avoid it. I would feel an aura coming but I would sit down immediately and have to talk to myself so it could stop. I would have to close my eyes. I felt the aura at the funeral but I couldn’t sit down because it would’ve been disrespectful. This was the first time I let it happen. It was dreadful and surprised cause I never knew it was a seizure. My eyes rolled back and I was clenched in the jaw and my legs were shaking.
I know exactly what you mean it happened to me at a wedding. I didn’t wanna sit down because I thought I would be disrespectful.
I still have no idea what this is after watching this. I had one a couple weeks ago and it was the first I had absolutely no control of im also 19 but this has happened randomly through out my life and controllable like you said. Nothing hurts about it it feels relaxing actually but it’s concerning because it leaves me quite confused literally
My brother has had two of these and each time we get scared to death good to see other people handling them makes me feel better about my brother
you are not alone. my brother also has these and it can be scary but we remember to stay calm
@@e_n_bxo yea we have been taking them better lately god bless 🙏
Important research. Thankyou to the participants and professionals
this has happened to me just yesterday and all of the nurses surrounded me because i had apparently fallen over into one of them as my eyes rolled back into my head they said i started shaking very rapidly. in my own head directly before this everyone’s voice had started to echo and then boom lights out there was this connection between being dead and sleeping that i felt as a movie started playing in my head. meanwhile the doctors said that during this time my eyes were open but my entire iris had turned black. soon back to me my eyes had shrunk and then about five seconds later i threw up and woke up at the same time the weird thing is that i can remember that i had this “dream” about a movie but not the movie happening i was very unaware of certain things and i had no idea how long i’d been out. after what happened yesterday i have been very forgetful and can’t remember things in the past and it is still hard for me to try to tell people things becuase i’ll forget that too. i’ve also realized that when i stand i tend to get dizzy normally that doesn’t happen
thats so fascinating in a way because a lot of people who have this see movies. for me im just in a dream like state but i can still think
Your comment describes perfectly what I experienced yesterday!
I had just consumed iodine contrast and when they pushed saline through my i.v, I started experiencing the worst nausea. I told them I was gonna pass out, and I did a few seconds later. They said my eyes rolled in the back of my head, and I started convulsing like this, with my hands drawn up towards my chest.

It was uncomfortable to say the least. I thought I died.
I’m 44 and have had this condition from the age of 12. The loss of memory is very apparent as now after experiencing well over 20 full episodes of unconsciousness, that representing only a third of these events, with the remaining third being partial episodes and not drifting to the abyss. The common factor of each episode is the very present loss of long term memory. At this point in my life I have very little memory of my past. What I have begun to notice more recently is that I am beginning to realize I am I am not retaining recent or new memories. A very unsettling byproduct of this condition.
@@mrsdragonite I had a similar experience back in May. I was in the passenger seat while my girlfriend was driving. Had the sweats and got light headed/weak. Told her I don't feel good. Also had a dream like/de ja vu like vision before I went out. I thought I saw James Hetfield from Metallica with long hair and the handle bar mustache haha. I went out and my girlfriend said the same thing about the hands clenched to my chest. I had woken up no more than 5 seconds later a little confused but knew I had passed out. I had bad nausea after as well. The worrying thing was the Deja Vu and I also had urinary incontinence, which are more seizure related. Went to the ER and they ran blood work, EKG, CT scan, and all normal. Diagnosed it as Vasovagal Syncope. Doing a EEG and MRI this month to dig a little deeper. Haven't had an episode since (fingers crossed). Hope the tests come back with good news! Hope you are well too!
this exact thing happened to me a few weeks ago, scared the hell out of me beacuse ive never gone through anything like that and no one in my family had a history of seizures. and it felt exactly like inbetween death and sleep but i was “dreaming” that i was in a store and was laying on the floor with my legs crossed hunched over with awful yellow lighting. it felt like i couldn’t breath and my mom was trying to wake me and i could hear her perfectly but it was so weird because it felt like i couldnt breathe. later in the hospital my fainting episode was caused by severe dehydration.
Thank you so much for posting this. It answers some questions I had about my own event earlier this year. Doctors can't decide if it's seizure of syncope.
I have a similar situation going on now. I was
Unsure if I blacked out or had a syncope episode. But I used to have seizures long ago, not on any meds, all my labs and head mri are all normal, doctors recommending me see a neurologist to rule out seizures. Hopefully not the case, doctors think I am crazy when I told them all that happened to me!
@@countrychic30 Is anyone testing you for POTS or VVS? Both of those can be misdiagnosed as seizures. And I know it can be hard to find doctors who are willing to do the investigation that is needed.
@@authenticmslife no, I have not seen a neurologist yet. That doc is booked up for another month, I have been telling my pcd everything and he looks at me like I am crazy. My doc recommended I put up a camera in my house cause I live alone currently. I had a similar mysterious episode of this happen 2 days ago, I am okay but I am sore in my ribs and my blood pressure was low. My dumb camera did not catch anything due to a glitch.
@@countrychic30 I'm sorry you are going through this. These sorts of things are so badly misunderstood by doctors. Can you request to see an internist while you wait for the neurologist? I was referred to one while I waited for a neurologist, and I found she was very diligent and understanding. I think internists tend to be a lot more determined to solve these mysteries than other doctors often are.
@@authenticmslife thank you! This kind of thing just popped up outta nowhere, I am healthy no problems whatsoever, just been a little stressed. But I will talk with my pcd and see if who they recommend right quick. Cause I just want to know what happened and why, I feel like at times like this I am backed into a wall when no one takes me seriously. Since this incident occurred I have taken steps to reduce stress in my life, been writing down everything that I remember about that day, and just going slow doing stuff around my home. 1 thing I have been trying for a long time to get is my drivers license here in nc, I have a permit, but with this mystery I am not getting behind a wheel til I know what is happening and how to treat this. I would feel guilty if I unknowingly caused an accident if I have another syncope episode.
It appears that I am predisposed to syncopal episodes with various triggers such as standing up after waking, skipping a meal, needles/sight of my blood or injections, and extreme pain. This video gives me a perspective on what my episodes look like as only a few incidents have been witnessed by others, as I’ve mainly been alone when fainting. It really doesn’t feel as bad as it looks, but damn it looks scary.
Have you ever had a doctor evaluate the function of your vagus nerve?
You might find this information helpful. If, in fact, your vagus nerve is responsible for your condition, the good news is that there are exercises you can do to stimulate and strengthen it. Having a healthy, diverse gut microbiome helps as well, since the gut microbiome communicates with the brain via the vagus nerve.

It happened to me when I fell from a tall tree. I had broken my ankle, but I eventually fainted. I was lost in my thoughts, and I could still hear the things around me. I woke up at some point but I never had any track of time. It was a weird experience. And my visioned slowly started blacked out when and I was fighting it since I knew this would happen, since I have a track record of it happening.
Just watched my dad dude do this last night. Thought I was watching him die in front of me. It’s had me shook and it’s hard to sleep and no recreate it in a dream. I understand all the people that go through it say “it not that bad” but watching it was scary asf. No one believed me while I was trying to explain what happened
My wife and I just watched our daughter go through one of these episodes and felt we were watching her pass right in front of us. She came back after about 30 seconds and will be ok from here. What an absolutely terrifying experience though. I am so sorry you had to experience this as well and I hope you can recover and the memory softens a little over time.
Just last night my 25 year old baby brother was sitting at the table with the family, all of us about to play a game of Yahtzee, and for the first time in his life had this experience. Thankfully we were all there and helped gently ease him to the floor as he leaned far back in his chair, straightening his body out with his eyes staring blankly and mouth agape. He didn't convulse, just stiffened up so bad that we could hardly adjust his body as he slid under the table, so we had to move the table instead. It only lasted 30 seconds for him, but for us it felt like a lifetime. I immediately tried to call 911 because I thought we were seeing him have a heart attack or burst aneurism, a million things ran through my head. But he came to himself quickly and was able to function normally, recollecting prior events and speaking normally, which relieved us tremendously. His arms hurt from tensing up still, but we are thankful that it wasn't as serious as it first seemed.
Why are all the comments about seizures while this video is not about seizures lol
I have a predisposition to vagal response when experiencing sharp pain in my wrist area.
Have experienced this quite a few times during cannulation. I tolerate arm, elbow and back of hand extremely well, but the moment cannulation is attempted on my inner wrist, it induces a severe vagal response causing nausea and syncope.
Fascinating how the nervous system responds to certain triggers.
When I have coughing fits and can’t catch my breath this happens to me. Luckily I’m usually in the sitting position or lying down when this happens and only when I have a really bad cough.
It's intense when I go through this. I completely stiffen up, entire body locks and looks like I had a sezire. Make noises and all.
My husband is the same way and it seems like he’s out longer than these people are. It also takes him a good while to recover. He will start feeling better in 45 minutes to an hour but will still need a day to feel strong again. His episodes are related to illness, usually a fever, or anything nausea related. He just had an episode today but thankfully was in bed when it happened.
This happened to me once, I had really violent jerks so people thought I was having a seizure. This was right in the middle of COVID and I was freshly 18 so I had to go to the ER alone for the first time. Was there for around 7 hours. But hey at least it wasn’t a seizure
There was a craze of doing this when I was a teenager at school (I.e. the deep breathing, jumping up, holding breath and falling down thing).
i do it with my friends all the time, but everyone i talk to says theyre scared to do it. it could never be a craze here because everyones too scared to do it 😭
I have convulsive syncope and happened to me today after I got my 1st Moderna shot. It's always shocking for the onlookers who think Im having a seizure. Usually my vision goes blurred, eyes roll in to the back of my head and I wake up in a pile of sweat with chills. I don't remember anything.
How was the 2nd shot?
@@FeterPrahm had my second shot today and felt fine- just a dead arm. I think having a sugary snack before and after helped my blood pressure. : )
Does your lips turn blue if you know?
@@BeckyBebeh865 someone said mine were blue, and I had them take a photo with my phone. I didn’t feel comfortable looking at it until now (7 hours later) but they don’t look blue to me.
When this happens to me (This Monday so recent) I can feel myself having a seizure with my eyes rolling to the back of my head and feeling trapped helplessly in hell in my own head. I never used to have seizures till just over a year ago.
@@YoussefAitAli-hi5zf I'll worsen it more so by adding that my PCV/LGV /bike/car licence has been revoked. Despite this happening very very rare, with a trigger of sudden injury, (8 times in 51 years despite being injured many many times) and it has no affect on my ability to drive for the past 34 years unless I was to break my arm whilst driving, the DVLA have told me I have epilepsy and suffer from unexplained random blackouts. I can no longer work and have lost all freedoms, my job, my hobbies, everything. There's nothing wrong with me and medical professionals have told them so and i'm fighting to get it back.
Synocope isn’t the same as seizures
@@923rememberme6 I have vasovagal syncope & have myoclonic jerks/spasms. It happened again in 2022 when I had to have a blood test as needles make me pass out
I think incomplete syncope might be what happens to me sometimes.
My vision goes dark and I get a weird taste in my mouth, my body gets all tingly, then my legs go limp and I fall.
I'm not 100% sure if I fully lose consciousness though, and it only ever lasts a few seconds.
Is this dangerous? Like to faint?
@@twist4110 As far as I know, not really, as long as you're in a safe place where you won't hurt yourself when you fall.
@@kassidycayton994 LIe down as soon as you begin to feel this: raise your lets(bend your knees) if you raise your blood pressure, you won't faint.
Have you seen your doctor about this? Could be simple partial seizures with those neuro symptoms that accompany it, would be worth discussing with your doctor.
@@ryandanroth I haven't, but I'll definitely bring it up next time I go, thank you for mentioning that.
When this happens to me my eyes roll to the back of my head, eyelids flicker, I and I just stop moving. I'm thinking normally at this time but I can't respond for a few moments.
Wonderful thank you. I've had several episodes and don't have a clue why. I'm putting it down to stress but now have an internal heart monitor to see if it's that.
Yesterday mornings was in a shower 1mx1m... No injury which you'd expect in such a confined space just straight down... And then trying to get up! As if I'm drunk or my knees have just given way!
My wife is having the same issue! Did you find any heart issue?
@@tylermaasdsam8238no. Turned out mine was stress. Had a heart monitor fitted and never triggered when I had an episode!
Remove the stress remove the problem!
i have laughter induced syncope.. Most of the time i can fight it, but when i can't, it's pretty intense
I’ve had this happen to me quite a few times throughout the last 10ish years, I just had it again about 2 weeks ago- at this point I’ve had it enough that I can tell when it’s coming so I lay on the floor before I fall.. the jerking motion was so bad this time that I cracked my forehead open and had to go to the hospital to get a bunch of stitches, now I have a huge scar across my face 😭
For me I start shaking super bad before I pass out I think idk no one was there with me but I just remember not being able to hold myself up Bc I was shaking so bad and my vision went black and I think I was out for a couple secs
I was helping my friend move and i felt so tired and felt like i just stood up too fast and it kept getting worse and worse in seconds and i don't remember passing out all i remember is waking up on the floor with my friend trying to wake me up. i fell face first and he said i was seizing kinda but I'm fine now my tooth went through my lip as i fell but now I'm fine
Always try to get to a safe place where you can sit down, especially if you are feeling shortness of breath.
Standing for too long.
Being dehydrated
Missing meals
Hypertension
Migraines with aura
Physical pain
Menstrual Cycle can all be triggers
I came here for more info on seizures/ synscope. In the last 6 years I’ve had 4 episodes, 3 of which an ambulance was called one was at the dr surgery which was the last one and the dr labeled it vasovagal synscope. But it seems that is more so just fainting. Every episode I’ve had I have lost conscious and I’m not sure for how long but long enough for someone to call an ambulance. Losing consciousness would also appear as fainting. I also have violent trashing of my limbs and eyes roll back into head which to me seems more like a seizer. Each time I’ve woken disorientated and have no clue what had just happened and feeling awful afterwards. One time I lost control of my bladder, woke up and started running in a panic. The very first time this happened was when I was a child I ran down a hill, tripped and hit my head on a rock. Every time I’ve had an episode anyone that is present has been in fear I was going to die. I haven’t yet seen a video similar to what I experience. As for the trigger it seems to be under high stress/ injury but I’ve had many injuries where nothing happened. One time I fainted during a tattoo (4th one and didn’t eat beforehand) but nothing happened, I’ve had hundreds of tattoos since with no problems.
I might ad the last time I distinctively remember my hearing went to like an electrical buzzing noise, my vision was like pressing pause on a movie but seeing more white then anything. My brain seemed active as if I was having normal thoughts but I was hyper focused on my thoughts. I was having stitches put in my ankle that I had cut open about 5 hours prior. When I came to my first thoughts was why is everything all over the floor and no stitches in, the look on the drs face was priceless he was in absolute shock and my wife was fighting to keep me still. The last thing I remembered was the antithetic wasn’t working
Anytime you had a episode did you not eat ?
When I'm about to go out I hear what sounds like static in my ears and then I just kinda enter a dream state for a few seconds, my arms move around a bit too.
Same and vision fades but is sparkly
I get those too. And there's always a weird smell.
Very educative. Good to know these things. Makes it easy to help when need arise.
I just had this happen to me the other day… so scary. I’ve never had a fainted or had a seizure
This just happned to me for the first time only a couple hours ago so I was researching it. I just remember not feeling so well after my hot shower and all i can remember is everything going dark. it felt as though i was dreaming but i couldn't remember what of. it felt very peaceful though and all the sickness i felt went away in that moment. it felt very quick but I guess i was out for good minute cause when i woke up i was very dizzy and my mom was over me crying screaming my name and on the phone with 911. she was honestly scared I was gonna die because my eyes where rolled back but open and i was shaking like a seizure and getting very pale and at a point not moving like this video. I am okay! but it was a little scary!!!
I have Vasovagal Syncope, and I faint constantly. It is ambiguous whether or not I have had a seizure, but most fundamentally, I am unconscious 75% of my fainting spells.
I am going through same and I am not liking it at all my doctor is also going to suspend my license to prohibit me from driving. What recommendations have u got? I also start to hyperventilate, gets very cold and shivver crazy and BP drops extremely low. M very upset with this..
My wife has Convulsive Vaso Vagul Syncope her triggers are so far vomiting, child birth but anything that jolts nerve endings a bumped elbow sight of blood etc.. can trigger , she carry’s anti vomiting medication Zofren and others, she was advised to be the first to have surgery for the day if it is ever needed .
@@artajks203 if the neurologist can’t trigger a seizure and your heart is ok if you can work out triggers it’s probably not epilepsy I am able to drive as the episode’s are in common, 🤞🏻🤞🏻
same im in a dream like state when it happens
Some seem real, others, I can't tell. I'm awake for most. When I was real sick at work two years ago, I blacked out twice. I did not realize the shunt stopped working. Had three surgeries in nine months. I feel more embrassed. Something I have tried to hide my entire life. I live on my own too.
Holy Shit.
Very interessting
10/10
For me it's not very seizure like- it's feels like your muscles are jerking out of your control but it's also like your extremities are fighting to regain control 😢
So I’ve been in a few jiu jitsu tournaments. In said tournaments if I’m being choked out I will let myself pass out before I give up and tap out. According to everyone at the tournament last time I went I started seizing on the floor and shaking violently. In my head I had a vivid feeling like I was falling so that’s why I could feel myself moving out of panic of falling. When I woke up I was initially surprised that I wasn’t in bed, then apparently started laughing maniacally but I can’t remember laughing.
This was happening to me about once or twice a year in the last 10 to 15 years. I definitely noticed a pattern in that it would happen after I have had some alcohol even if it’s not a lot. Then when I wake up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom, I start to feel the fainting sensation While I’m urinating, and the only way to stop it is to stop urinating by force. It’s like my blood pressure is dropping fast. That worked for many years. I would just slowly lay on the floor and wait. Unfortunately, the last time it happened I fell flat on my face, ended up in the ER with 9 stitches on my forehead. Luckily, I was not wearing my eyeglasses at the time I fell. I stopped drinking since then. It hasn’t happened again it’s been three years. One thing I noticed is the starting position on the video is almost the same as sitting on the toilet. Look closely how they designed the mat. The legs are positioned lower. Now I’m wondering if maybe this happens when the toilet is too low and perhaps having a higher toilet is safer? Maybe something about blood pooling in the hips? I don’t know… Something in the body that happens in that particular semi squatting position. I usually sit while urinating but it has happened also when I’m standing. I also noticed I’m easily prone to convulsions. Like when I have a fever that’s a little high I get convulsions. I am skinny with very little body fat, it feels like I’m freezing.
What's the reason for it? Old brain accidents or vessel problems? Or something else? Par example biochemical problems?
Has happened to me a few times and it is the weirdest experience I've ever had
I do it sometimes and it's fun
I am wondering if this is a mild version of this because when it happens to me it can last way longer thant this and when i come out its very slow and i am out of it for a really long time basically happened to me on my way to the ER then at ER i fell i guess I dont remember any of the ER visit my wife told me what the Doctor said from what she could understand
This has been happening to me more and more frequent (just about every time I stand up) I try my best to lean against a wall but sometimes it just sneaks up on me and suddenly I wake up on the floor breathing rlly hard. I usually stand up then everything slowly goes black then I fall and I feel like I’m flying through a tornado and I always end up falling face first and hitting my head on something
I relate to this so much, I can't tell if it's normal or not. I get triggered by a mixture of fear and anxiety I get whenever I think something is wrong with my body, even if it's really stupid, then my senses start to fail me, I try to calm down and I think I was successful but then I realize something is actually wrong and I feel like I'm flying through a tornado desperately trying to hold on to something and come back and I hear songs in my head and have messy thoughts. When I wake up I'm really cold and shaking and the anxiety makes me nauseous. Does that happen to you too?
The postural element makes me think POTS but definitely a thing to check with a physician about
@@stellaalemanno1932 This is textbook what happens to me, even if its really really stupid... I dont hear songs as much as I do just completly random, but happy thoughts. When I wake up I'm normally drenched. The rollercoaster your brain goes on, yea I feel that.
Love it. I'd like to see EEG of faint
I have had a vagal episode 4 times in my life, never fainted. Once when I saw the epidural being administered during my sons birth, once when I woke up too fast, once when I was constipated, and once when I saw a fish getting gutted
When i started fainting i thought i was dying it was very weird and i could hear my heart beat it felt like i was spinning but my eyes were closed i also once spinned in like chair spinning things while looking down and when i looked up my eyes started to close and it felt like i was fainting again then i woke up some seconds later. 😓
I also fainted last month too 😳
When i fainted i had a 3 second dream of me at an F1 pit stop and this person saying, " Ok, Your in buddy" and i returned to my body
I also didn't see blackness or fainting I just transitioned like I was on the floor and standing
This happened to me yesterday in a hot tub…..I stood up and had to sit right back down. Then I started to try to fight it then a flash of light then boom. I had head jerks with entire body movement and hit the back of my head multiple times and I felt and heard everything….just couldn’t do anything about it. I could only think in my head……it was like the episode when Derek Shepard died in Grays anatomy. I was in my head like “wait who’s pulling me?”, “Is this a heart attack? No, there’s my heart” so many thoughts in a few seconds. Scared the hell out of my partner
I get that mild shaking
nurses are always convinced that I'm faking, but something like this has happened to me a few times now, buts always really aggressive jerking mostly in my legs, repeatedly going completely limp for a few seconds before getting back to the shaking, and apparently it had gone on for a couple hours but I only remembered about 10 minutes of it. I had moments of semi consciousness where I could say some words but I could only get like one word out at a time and I was repeating it rapidly
It happened to me yesterday when i was literally in toilet for more than 20 Minutes bc of constipation,I remember that I’d gotten up from squatting position,when i opened eyes I was bit confused where i was at…I wasclearly blanked out ,really like passing out….my specs glass came out…I’d mild fever for which I have been taking medicines for two days and there’s hypotension Issue….too……..like I passed out…….I have 3or4 stitches on my left forehead 😿
I was just standing in the kitchen… head started spinning.. so I sat down, fell out the chair unconscious but I could still hear what sounded like yelling from my moms… idk why this keeps happening
I fainted for the first time earlier. I was having a blood test (they took five vials of blood) and before they pulled out the needle I started to feel sick, my hearing went and I couldn’t see very well
Then I woke up really confused
I had hit my head on the wall behind me, fallen on the nurse and I was apparently twitching and my eyes were open
The same happens to me every time I have a blood test. It has happened to me since I was a child, so now I know that I should always tell the nurse/doctor about it and lay down while I have the blood test so I don´t get hurt during the seizure.
Laying down helps Sooo much and when someone fans you
is vomiting common?
has anyone else thrown up after they’ve had the convulsive fainting?
I had this happen for the first time the other day getting the covid shot and I threw up when I came out of it
I used to feel fainting coming a whole morning, then black out bang my head and wake up, never got it checked, from 16 to 21 this happened, then began morning nausea blindness and tingling and numbness and the worst inability to do anything so id close my eyes a massive wave would rise to my head, it would ring and i would come out of it without falling aslong as i put my eyes into my inside elbow and hold onto a counter.
Then bacame random feeling thoughts episodes of clumsiness, idiot like behaviour and without reason so i continues to learn physics, science, history, and everything i can with over the top excitability and joy, later learning i would develop tonic clonic seizures, generalised idiopathic epilepsy, constant unsteadiness and focal, and absence seizures bad memory and feeling lost whilst in the middle of a super strong thought... The fits ultimately have left forgetful of the conplex vocabulary i once had 😢 and a lot of the things im fixing in life could have been solved had i been diagnosed at 16, instead it was 24 when i woke up to water over me and my partner on the phone to 999 with the ambulance coming.. syncopy fainting and epilepsy have a massive stigma and telling people im disabled doesnt help the fact ive always had amxiety and depression, and now got left thoracic msk, maybe due to the fits i hadnt noticed i had before it was noticed and acted upon. Now im carbamazepine and have nothing for my absenses and focal aware seizures meanin a lot of the time i see darkened vision tunnel vision get numb or strokey, and tingly or stumble, then i stare blank out and forget everything everyday even though i will always say i won't haha if i stand up theres never a promise i dont have an aura and then it go away sometimes i have a good few hour before been in a thought maybe talking to somebody and have this forgetdul anxiety in the pit of my soul and realise im trying to absense its weird
I had my first faint today
It was a combination of standing up too fast and possibly being dehydrated
For i stood up because i heard something outside and as usual (when i stand up to fast) my vision started to fade out but this time it was longer than normal then i heard a series off glass clinking on glass and all that stuff from what was on my desk and then my vision started to return as i had fallen on a donut plush first thing i said was “wth” and then I realized i has bitten my lip open and scratched my elbow with the desk and that made me really confused throughout the entire thing
TLDR: it felt like i was awake for the entire thing though i couldn’t see anything
Did you ever have it again? I had one today and it felt like an out of body experience and i panicked after
This has been happening to me since I was a kid when I stretch or have my arms over head or hang from bars to stretch my back. If I hold the stretch too long I fall to the ground and twitch but I’m certain I don’t lose consciousness.
This has started happening to me
Have you spoken to a dr about it? If yes, I’m curious as to what treatment/management they gave you
I was thinking of speaking to a doctor only for them basically to tell me not to stretch or do whatever causes the episode lol
This is exactly what happens to me the past two years. I get a weird feeling then I stretch and faint. Sometimes I’ll just stretch and faint and have slight twitching, I get migraines frequently and my eye twitches ar times. I have seen a cardiologist and they told me I had vasovagal syncope but my heart test came back regular... and because of the stretching it doesn’t sit right with me, I am going to see a neurologist.. but have you been diagnosed with anything yet? I need closure it’s really stressing me out.

@@laylahussein5327 unfortunately I have no idea what is wrong with me because it’s only started happening in the past few weeks. I’ve started stretching to help correct my poor posture and when I stretch “too far” I pass out
Good luck looking into treatment/diagnosis, it’s not fun to have
Is it weird that i enjoy it when i faint it feels like im floating away but for people around me they can see me shaking like im having a heart attack
When I was ten years old in our class my friends and I used to have holding breathe competitions I joined in once and held my breathe for so long the my friends told me my face turned purple and eyes rolled back to my head and I could see my self in third person I was also told I vomited and I had a seizure like shaking but to be true I felt nothing
My class has no teacher in it because of recent events they are all leaving the school. The substitute is young and didn’t know it was a bad idea to let 9th graders have a competition to see who can go the longest being choked without tapping out. I passed out yesterday and had seizing motions and had a dream I was falling. We aren’t allowed to play anymore. But hey, I still won.
Apparently my head twitches to the side and I regain consciousness before I'm out yet again. I didn't know this but I do know that I scared my friend really good.
I wonder where these people are today
If you worry about the consequences of such experiments -- vasovagal faint either natural or intentional does virtually zero harm to your health. Except the harm you can get from hitting the pavement by your head, of course. Don't trust papers about "choking games" -- the goal of such papers is to alarm the society about dangerous teen games, but they make no difference between really deadly playing with a rope around the neck and making yourself faint by breathing exercises. Last thing is only dangerous with injures from uncontrollable falls and for people already having serious heart problems.
Oh my God, is this what my mother sees when I have seizure?
Oh my...research....
I move while it's happening and it's goes all black for me
Actually today I fainted and all people around me came and crowded then I thought it was dream but it's too hurting and my eyes going up I thought I was almost dead then I closed my eyes after few minutes I opened and I was alright
Before syncopal attack... my sight goes dark and i saw few star. Waking up with my head hurt badly and chest pain and muscle ache
this happened to me yesterday and i felt no pain expect for my head when i hit it hard on the ground. This happened around 12pm and i was at school
I feel like fainting when i stretch or sometimes when stand up or roll over in bed in or out of a face down position.
Woah, I just had this happen to me today for the first time… it was a wild ride I must say.
It was my first post op appointment and had my bandages removed also my drains… fainted and started shaking crazy my vision went all white and was dreaming/hallucinating while hearing my surroundings. Since this happened is it like going to keep happening or ??? Should I visit a doctor specifically for this ?
Mention it to a dr next time you see them, this happened to me today while donating blood
I have always wondered what this was called. It happens to me a lot. Last episode i was going down the stairs but luckily i kept hold of the railing and fell backwards.
what i’ve noticed that nobody else seems to experience is when i’ve woken up i have no clue where im at and i freak out and start panicking and it’s truly a fucked up experience
I just fainted yesterday, it feels like you are sleeping, but i remember i hit the toilet door and i heard a small fraction of sound, when i woke up ,i heard small voice of my mother and getting louder, then i was concious
That’s scary, I don’t think I could do that to myself 😬
How long do they hyperventilate before they stand up
any amount of time works to an extent, but since they seem to be out for a longer time and are twitching quite a bit, id say probably 1 minute or a minute and a half
I had just consumed iodine contrast for a CT scan yesterday, and when they pushed saline through my i.v, I started experiencing the worst nausea. I told them I was gonna pass out, and I did few seconds later. They said my eyes rolled in the back of my head, and I started convulsing like this, with my hands drawn up towards my chest. I came to some seconds later, but I felt like I dreamt about Elvis Presley and he was telling me to come back lol. As I awakened I felt hot and cold in flashes and was sweating on my arms. I had the most extreme ringing in the ears. I also broke out in a rash on my knuckles, elbows and scalp. It was uncomfortable to say the least. I thought I died.
Doing research because last night I fell down twice and one of the 2 times i must have hit my head because I have a bump. While I must have been twitching, I pulled something in my back. I don't remember being able to see while it was happening until I was starting to come back to, but I could feel myself thrashing on my bedroom carpet, but could not control or stop it. After the first one, there was about 25 seconds between feeling alright and then starting to swoop back out of it and then I went down in the bathroom on the tile. But I remember thinking why the f is this happening right now and why can't I stop and then I would come to slowly. I went to urgent care this morning and they couldn't notice anything wrong other than the bump so they said if you wanna further it, get some Bloodwork, but you seem neurologically fine. I didn't know you can have a mini seizure just from fainting. , It's just the body passing out and freaking out. The worst part about this in my opinion is not knowing the cause of it.
so sitting at a dinner with my family i pass out and have a seizure on the floor my dad held me up till i woke up and was taken to the hospital mind you this is my first time this ever happened to me. Long story short i was taking linsooprol for highblood pressure and hydrochlor. a water pill i was 250lbs when i began these medications i started going to the gym 2 years later i went down to 200lbs and turns out the medications were causing my blood pressure to drop because i didnt need them anymore being that i lost weight. No wonder in my days of being 200 lbs i would feel weak basically they were doing me harm , why am i writing this because there might be someone out there on the same grind working out but on these type of meds just a heads up
Idk what i have as it wasnt epileptic. I stand and then have a right side attack that my head turns to one side my arm comes up to my chest twisting all about. Im aware the whole time and dont always fall. Yet it happens numerous times a day when standing or walking after standing for a while.
I recently watched my love my life my soul flame got through this and i think it was triggered by her drinking and smoking a hookah without eating much but her mom and grandma told her they had the same thing so i prayed over my love and she has been fine ever since
I have syncope but I've never fainted, I only feel like fainting and immediately I'll start distracting myself
it cannot be normal and its happening more when i even stand up to quick
as i age
updates as of 2024? im curious i also am having this issue when standing up quickly or after sitting during a car ride and getting out itll happen if i get up to fast have u found answers or anything? im 19 seems like mine are every other day now
I have these and neurologist is trying to diagnose further. I’ve been doing these since I was 13. My body shuts down and heavy breathing and feel like imma pee/poop myself eye rolling limp and sweating. One time I seen the white light. At times I have two back to back
Bro at 4:15 is wild
I have complex partial epileptic seizure. And during lengthy walk or standing I'll get this sudden blackout like a second or two. But I didn't get fainted. Just like someone turning off my brain switch for a couple of second there. Then afterwards its like my brain would slowly regained consciousness and back to its normal conditions. But still the vertigo and dizziness still there.
It now is happening at least once a day I can feel it coming and I have basic control of at least half my body only during major episodes do i fall on ground but i can fight it well and control my basic functions
Happens to me nearly daily as I can self induce it. Best natural high and it's so trippy. It's like I'm transported into a different time and dimension.
BRO SAME. I do it and it's so fun and I feel like I'm dreaming or in another reality but I can't remember anything. The funny thing is that I don't tell people I do it because it sounds so dumb and it's so difficult to explain. I love doing it though lmao.
Is it safe? I had this experience after i got up quickly from a hot bath and stretched. I panicked after i came to
@@Lily-um9tj can be scary. I fit sometimes. But the only danger that I've heard from doctors is if you fall and hit your head. I bend my knees and place hands to the ground as soon as it begins to onset. It passes quickly.
@@Lily-um9tj Yeah it’s completely safe unless you hit your head pretty hard on the fall.
@@mindcave yeah, sometimes when i do it i get this feeling im about to start like having a fit and spasming then i dont and my heart starts beating slowly but extremely heavily, like my whole body is just thumping.
dude I had my hands around the railing of the top of a bunk bed when I fainted but I didn't even fall down it was so weird... after I'd blacked out I remember being somewhat conscious while my limbs jerked all around out of my control it was crazy.
fainted again today 😔 i fell on my head and there’s a huge bruise on my face
how did they provoke it?
it's at the beginning
Hypoxic Syncope is induced due to deep breaths in and quick breaths (without completely exhaling) out, as well as using the valsalva maneuver.
this happened to me once, but i was standing up. usually when i get up off the couch, my vision gets pretty dark and i get that weird euphoric feeling. but just a few months ago i got up off the couch, got the usual tunnel vision, but then i started twitching and gyrating uncontrollably. i managed to keep my balance despite being like half conscious, lol.
If someone faints should you tell them to count from 1-10
